good step bye step guide to make a tube bar.
if you have the equipment.

Just built a new one yesterday, there is about 24 man hours in it and that is with somebody that does heeps of tube work and has ALL the tools.

Have you got pics Guts as Im after one for my Lux as well How much do you charge for them Will they fit a 9500 Warn winch

What have people been using as mounts for Hilux bars? There's not really anything factory to mount to.

Was thinking about running crush tubes through the chassis.

What model is yours? I can think of 7 spots per side that you could use bolts on. Or 5 if you have dropped hangers with the rhs accross the front.

his ute is a gen 2 xtra cab....
a nice one at that!

I think Snake Racing does one "off the shelf". Guts used to have one on the front of his hilux.

This is an old pic of my front bar . I made it when i still had the standard hangers etc. It mounts of the 6 original bar bolts. ( is now welded as well )
Started with a piece of c-section & went from there. I wanted the winch as far back as i could
It now has been modified for the Dropped hangers & now has a small stinger on as well.

try pirate they have millions of idea's on them.

just don't do what ditch did.

wanted custom i think,

but warnin to people, don't say you can't be bothered lookin through 50 threads of tube bars, hahahahahah

Here is a my new bar, as you can see I still have to put the rollers on and number plate. I`m also going to paint the 2 outer bottom bars black, the ones that bolt from the side. The 2 vertical bars either side of the winch look better if they are closer to the winch and more up right, but we made this bar so that it will fit a HS9000 and they have a much longer motor on them.

Guts that bar sucks Looks like you copied mine.

Copied my old one, then just changed the mounts a bit and allowed for the bigger winch.

Go along with a joke wiil ya.

No way, not with you anyway

wot did you do with your old bar??

Its not forsale if thats what your getting at.

yeah he is giving it to me...



but he doesnt know it yet,

Looks good
